Earliest Sunrise- Flatline
June 10, 2015
June 10, 2015
Sunrise 5:47 AM. San Francisco, CA
Beginning today and for the next 9 days, the sunrise will be at its earliest moment for the year (at this latitude). By the Solstice, it will already have been rising later, squeezing daylight away from the morning side of things.
I love how this happens. The
longest day is on the Solstice, but that is not because it is the earliest
sunrise and latest sunset of the year. It’s not that symmetrical. Check out
this chart from 2008 to see how rates of slowdown and expansion work for each
end of the day and enjoy the sound of the earliest sunrise of the year. (It’s
been the same every year so far)
Listen. It was raining this morning!!!
